| Forgive Yourself | The main task of supportive groups is to help you. They want you to understand that it is necessary to forgive those responsible for and involved in your abortion if you are to be truly free. Women undergone abortion procedure have to realize that in forgiving others you will come to understand forgiveness for yourself.
You must come to accept God's forgiveness and know of His great mercy and love.
You must come to forgive yourself. Self-forgiveness is able to stop self-judgment and walk freely in the forgiveness.
After undergoing healing, lots of women want to become involved in some activity that allows them to put life-giving energy back into this world in some way. Supportive groups can help you to do that.
The key questions that a woman who is struggling after an abortion has to determine are:
Can my child forgive me?
Can God forgive me?
Can I forgive myself?
You must remember that, as part of healing, there will be periods when you will feel sadness when you think of your child. That is normal. It does not mean that you are not healed. Rather, those tears will be a sign of your healing.
The healing process is often made easier when you are helped by others. Supportive groups would like to help you or put you in touch with those who can help you. Please contact one. They are ready to be with you as you journey to healing.
